APC Governorship Aspirants Petition Tinubu
Meanwhile, ten governorship aspirants of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara State have petitioned President Bola Tinubu, raising concerns over what they described as a worsening crisis within the party.
In the petition addressed to the President at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, the aspirants alleged that Governor AbdulRazaq had lost the political and moral authority to determine the party’s direction ahead of the 2027 general election.
They warned that unless urgent intervention comes from the party’s national leadership, the APC risks deeper internal divisions in the state.
The petition was jointly signed by Dr. Oluwatoyin Tajudeen Alabi, Capt. Ahmad Mahmud, Alhaji Tajudeen Audu, Dr. Azeez Salako, Muideen Olaniyi, Ambassador Yahaya Seriki Gambari, Senator Saliu Mustapha, Dr. Bashir Omolaja Bolarinwa, Hon. Omar Muhammed Bio, Dele Belgore (SAN), and Senator Yahaya Ibrahim Oloriegbe.
Despite their grievances, the aspirants reaffirmed their loyalty and support for President Tinubu and his administration.
